Couch to 5k!



I have seriously neglected the exercise part of my Self Improvement Project. I had been going to the gym a little, I did a couple of classes, but then the trial membership I had ran out. Truth be told by the time I've finished work in the evening I am usually too tired to exercise, or at least very happy to use that as my excuse. 

My new mini mission: Complete the NHS Choices Couch to 5k (http://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/c25k/Pages/couch-to-5k-plan.aspx)

It's a 9 week program designed for people looking to start jogging. Each weeks podcast needs to be completed 3 times, with a day between each session. Strictly speaking you could complete each week after 6 days. 

I have completed 2 sessions of week 1, which is a very gentle introduction. If I do find it getting more difficult I may choose to increase the number of session I do for a particular podcast, but I will just see how I go! I will do every podcast at least 3 times, with at least 1 day in between! 

As always I will let you know how I get on - wish me luck!
